Week 15 NFL Power Rankings: Rams climb/Broncos fall after wins

Week 14 continued to see divisional battles shake out and teams jockey for a spot in the upcoming NFL Playoffs, with some former dynasties potentially falling apart at the seams. In contrast, others look to reclaim former glory. Let’s take a look at our updated version of the NFL power rankings now that all the action has wrapped up.1. New England Patriots: The Patriots were off this week, and there were some strong efforts put forth by a handful of other Top 5 teams, but it didn’t feel right to knock New England off their pedestal here. They are still one of just two teams in the league with 11 wins, Drake Maye has looked like an MVP candidate for most of the season, and they remain a Top 10 team in total offense and total defense. The Bills will provide a tougher challenge this week, but if the Patriots make it through unscathed, it could be smooth sailing to the postseason.2. Los Angeles Rams: The Rams and Seahawks are somehow interchangeable still, with their position fluctuating depending on how dominant each plays weekly – but it’s clear they’re both elite teams after both hit the 10-win mark on Sunday (becoming just the third and fourth franchises to do so). With the head-to-head win over Seattle still looming and an absolutely dominant 45-17 win over the Cardinals this weekend, the Rams get the nod this week and advance to the Top 2.3. Seattle Seahawks: The Seahawks are not far behind, and are not dropping this week after a commanding 37-9 victory of their own over the Falcons. The Seahawks still have a challenging schedule ahead, including a rubber match with the 49ers, and they can prove they still deserve to move up in these rankings.4. Denver Broncos: The Broncos drop two spots despite a win this week, but it’s not really their fault. Their 24-17 win over the Raiders looked a bit less impressive than the Rams’ and Seahawks’ did this week, but Denver is still a Top 5 team with a Top 5 defense and should have no problem continuing its run to the postseason.5. Green Bay Packers: The Packers earned what was perhaps the biggest win of the week as they knocked off the Chicago Bears to secure an outright lead in the NFC North. The Packers are now 9-3-1 and are on a four-game winning streak since dropping back-to-back losses to start November. It doesn’t always look pretty or dominant for Green Bay, but at the end of the day, they’re still winning.6.  Chicago Bears7. San Francisco 49ers8. Los Angeles Chargers9. Buffalo Bills10. Detroit Lions11.
